Iframe tags are commonly used to add widgets.
Blog systems like wordpress also support widgets in sidebars, which can be added through the admin interface.

Data widgets used to created a ‘mash-up’ web page on Netvibes (Michael Wesh’s Netvibes page, http://www.netvibes.com/wesch#Intro_Class_Portal)

Netvibes also has a huge widget library (http://tour.netvibes.com/overview.php )

Application widgets

- According to Apple
Accessory Widgets – Totally self-contained, these do not require an Internet connection or any other application on the computer. A clock is an example of this type of widget.
Application Widgets – These widgets use another application, such as an address book or calendar, for a source and usually provide information in a simple interface.
Information Widgets – Designed to gather data from the Internet, these will show stock prices, top music lists, or other items from the web. These widgets will not work unless there is an active connection from the computer to the Internet.

Widgets are often about the use of the data outside of their original web site structure

Apps are the widgets on the iPhone

Integration of tv and internet will not be web pages, but widgets

IPhone changes dynamics of game software industry • “Only a few years ago, bigger guns, badder enemies and louder explosives mattered most in video games.” • “Now, small is beautiful, and Apple Inc.'s iPhone is largely responsible.” • “...developers are starting to make shorter, less expensive games that are released in more frequent installments. “ • It's not just the device that's having an effect. It's also Apple's App Store, an online marketplace where users can browse through 25,000 software applications from thousands of publishers.
